Wow- I really love that Tanzanite liner with the purples.

It certainly brings out the green in your eyes! I'm going to have to try this combination.

That flower is a clematis, BTW. I've got a magenta one in my garden. Love the magenta stripes on the blue petals in your photo.

custom mix of: voile/glissade 1YL-2YL plus a bit of Lilas Coquille. Green eyes, Dark purple/brown/black hair, freckles. Current faves: Bella, Sinisterrouge, and Luminary!

Looks awesome, Melissa! And I think the flower is a Clematis. They come in many colors, many purples especially, and often are nearly as large across as salad plates!

**********************
My coloring - Fair, naturally curly dark red hair, freckles (light golden), combo to oily skin, use 1W Glissade and/or Voile, although I can and have worn 1Y, 1Y/L, and 1Y/L/00 at different times. Would describe my coloring as neutral - not a classic Autumn, not really a Winter, maybe more of a Late Fall?

Clematis.. yes.. we had them on a vine trellis when we lived in Walla Walla , Wa. gorgeous flowers.
Melissa, you might want to search out a pic of a passion flower.. as I recall (childhood memory) they were exceptionally pretty and you could really do a great job with eye makeup using the colors.Oh and Columbine flowers too. they come in different colors and are outstanding.

I just love your application of these colors BTW.

Indian Paintbrush inspired look would be GORGEOUS!!

Sometimes I miss Texas. The Blubonnets and Indian Paintbrush together was always breath taking.

I also miss those Scissor-tailed Flycatchers. *sigh*

Fall foliage ideas: Sugar Maples, Aspens, Mums, Burning Bushes, Pumpkins!

I'd like to see this flower... it's hellebore. I love green flowers. This one and Bells Of Ireland are really beautiful. There was a florist in Rochester where you could get single stems of really unusual things and they used to have hellebore. I really miss that shop. I used to be able to walk there from Aromaleigh's old downtown loft. We always had flowers!

Reddish Hair • Blue/Green eyes • 1YL or 00 Glissade normal skin/dry in winter • Clear and High Contrast coloring- I can wear pretty much anything... and I do! • Clarisonic/Vitamin C/Baby Quasar/Retin A/ NuFace junkie • Love Rocks! and Elemental Lustres shadows • I always wear lots of black with a bright color and match my eyeshadow to my clothing... love breaking the rules • 1970 baby... that makes me how old?

I agree.
Where did you live in Texas, desert sage?
(I apologize if I already asked this..I think I am losing my memory.)

Gorgeous flower, hellebore.

Kristen, I googled hellebore (I wanted to see more pics) and found this nursery in NC that holds an annual Hellebore Festival !!

I think the new color estranged would look wonderful for this flower. Unfortunately, I haven't ordered the new ones yet. Maybe Loida (who got all FULL sizes [jealous]) could do a cool look with it!

I think estranged would be perfect, too... I want to do ALL of the looks in the themes folder... I just wish I had the time!!!

If I do get around to doing any of them, they might end up being more "freestyle"...

I'm dying to see someone do the red vinyl theme!!!

I LOVE Bells of Ireland!!! The Hellebore is awesome & the Indian Paintbrush is just to die for!!! Thanks for all the inspiring pix & looks! I can't wait to do some...alas as a new mommy I've got a full time job just feeding my little wonder, it's all I can do to make time for a shower! I don't know how I will do it when DH goes back to work!!! Oh well...women have been doing it for centuries! I'm sure I'll manage & maybe I'll figure out how to squeeze in some AL play time for mommy's sanity! LOL!

Thanks for again all the looks...keep'em coming!
